[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You turned this into a power struggle.  Is this the first kid to ever dothis for you?  Talk to him in a happy voice, give him a toy and use your left hand to hold his legs against his chest while your right hand removes the diaper from reach, then wipes.  Put new diaper on and brightly say, "All done!"  Why you are getting emotional is beyond me.  Firmly telling a young toddler "No" never stopped any kid.  Place thetemptation beyond reach and move on.  Egads![/quote]

I hear what you're saying but I can't physically keep it out of arm's reach from him while simultaneously getting him clean. No it isn't the first but it's the first kid who isn't distracted by toys or songs or even a special snack. As I said in my OP I give him special toys, we have special changing songs (which include hand motions to keep him occupied), and of course I narrate cheerfully or tell him a silly story - just isn't working with him.

I'll try the pants on the face game tomorrow and see how that goes![/quote]
